Oh my world, you glitter
Around me. Glades and caverns
Of serenity. No. Not true.
Troubling severity.
It’s there.
I see.
Peace in the aftermath.
But I know that it’s there,
Always,
Somehow –
Of course.
There’s darkness.
But light.
Always there’s light.
Remember,
You can see both.
Allow light as well.

If I could be
Truly
Through this door
Up
Through cosmos
No dilemmas
Because it’s known
It’s not known…
But the confusion
There’s stillness and vibrancy
But answers
And reasons
Gone
And known
It’s a destination
Frozen
Trying to get somewhere?
Partly
No
I’m protected
By my own self.

Drowned in windmills
All too fast
Comes from everywhere
All senses
Block them out
Relax
All gone
Nothingness
Hollow
Want it back
Can’t get it back
But for a moment…
Whoosh
It’s there
No
Block it out.
Meditate
Bit by bit it comes back
It’s okay
There’s vibrancy.

Oh everlasting fire of my eyes,
They twinkle, move in circles.
I can’t be seen, they’re holding me fast.
Stillness, stay here with me.
I move with my rage when it comes,
And we take for it’s given. Falling
chalices, they’re golden. Now
What is left is smoke,
The endless rain
Of trailing accolades. She is free,
Freedom itself. Nothing can be sure.

My head feels like a desert
and overcrowded, all at once.
It’s like everything’s there and it’s frozen. Dust. How to be clear
but be full. There’s both but there’s neither.
I want to be him just for a while.
I think he sees all of it.
